5 "It was because your hearts were hard that Moses wrote you this law," Jesus replied.

Yes, divorce was permitted, but only because of the
hardness of man's hearts. Then, Jesus reminds them
what God's ideal of marriage looks like.

8 and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one.

DIVORCE, SEPARATION AND REMARRIAGE
Matthew 5:32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery.
![Page 16: Divorce and Our Words](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110118/5552419ab4c9059a4f8b45c4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
1 Corinthians 7:15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.
![Page 17: Divorce and Our Words](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110118/5552419ab4c9059a4f8b45c4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.
![Page 18: Divorce and Our Words](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110118/5552419ab4c9059a4f8b45c4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.

KEEPING YOUR VOWS
Matthew 5:33 "Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not break your oath, but keep the oaths you have made to the Lord.' "
![Page 20: Divorce and Our Words](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110118/5552419ab4c9059a4f8b45c4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
34 But I tell you, Do not swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.
![Page 21: Divorce and Our Words](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110118/5552419ab4c9059a4f8b45c4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 Simply let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.

Exodus 20:7 "You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name."

YOUR WORDS AND YOUR HEART
Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

Psalm 15:1 Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary? Who may live on your holy hill? 2 He whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from his heart 4… who keeps his oath even when it hurts,
